Looks like that Sunday JB played would have been a good show considering the line up:
Breakfast with the Dead | Grateful Dead
Jerry Jeff Walker
Jimmy Buffett
Jackson Browne
Fleetwood Mac

Bummer that Buffett isn't going to be on the this airing. HOWEVER....Van Halen played that year and were incredible! I have an "unofficial" 2 disc set of their performance, warts and all, and they were amazing.
...and on a similar but unrelated note: I've always thought of Sammy Hagar as the "hard rock Jimmy Buffett". The man loves his tequila, has a few songs about beaches, and was proprietor of the Cabo Wabo Cantina. Just thought I'd throw that in there.
Let the Sammy vs. Dave vs. Jimmy
discussion begin!

That was my first time seeing JB (and the Dead, for that matter)...
Damn, I just had a flashback.
I guess that's what you get from having "breakfast with the Dead"
